Bigfooty General Metal Thread Mk.VII

[Paul Kersey]

New Defeated Sanity.

 

[the_interloper]

New Body Count, sounding good so far, they sound much better with Juan of the Dead on rhythm, he’s an actual metal guitar player, Ernie C seems like a blues guy really (as much as I love him)

 

[Dee Snider]

How the hell do you rank these? Dio - The Last in Line unlucky not to make the cut.

 

[Dee Snider]

Yep, compulsory acquisition imo.

They forgot Stay Hungry by Twisted Sister. And even more importantly - Morbid Tales!

Man feel for the girls who were poisoned in Laos. A parent's worst nightmare.

Do Sodom make the top 21?

 

[Schauermann]

Do Sodom make the top 21?

No.

Only had their "Victims of Death" Demo that year. "In the Sign of Evil" was released January 1985 (but recorded in 1984).

New Morta Skuld whilst warming up for squats. Are you at The Cult show James Colorado?

No, had a bit on this weekend

 

[Garf]

Been getting into a Japanese all girl quintet called Lovebites, who I discovered during lock down.

Speed and thrash mainly, all in high heels ! Plenty of reaction vids on Youtube.

I really must go there ! Japan is helping to keep metal alive bigly.

Killer songs are live versions of Soldier Stands Solitarily and Winds of Transylvania, but there are dozens more.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Late night cd playlist starting with Savage Grace ‘Master of Disguise/The Dominatress’ with Destruction ‘Mad Butcher/Eternal Devastation’ next in line followed by Savatage ‘Sirens/The Dungeons are Calling’. Like these comp cds labels used to do.

Revisiting Testament's The Gathering after that discussion a few pages back. What an album.
